> [@Dwuemka](#): > > One question, tho, because I can’t see it mentioned anywhere since the bug was reported a while back: does the dev team also remember about the bug where a team containing an immortal that doesn’t fit the PvP region requirements will disappear on collecting tribute or on leaving & coming back to PvP? > [@Kafka](#): > > We have a potential fix for this in 8.2… not mentioned as it’s another one of those issues where it was difficult to reproduce, so we’re not 100% sure if it is definitely fixed or if we just didn’t happen to reproduce the issue during testing. This is not fixed. The Winter’s Reach (Mech) with Immortal Glaycia (Fey) that I built yesterday is gone today. As others have noted this bug is trivially reproducible. Disappointing; this is such low-hanging fruit to fix, and is having such a negative player impact – I basically don’t use Immortals in PvP because it’s so annoying to have to constantly set up the team again. ---

For those keeping track of such things, here is the offer I received: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/7/0/70de92a1693c746f227d6992066bf92afe1ffabd.jpeg) Price is $4.99 USD (on Steam) or $6.19 CAD (on my phone). I also would like to see the tracking for all other daily activities on this screen. I’m getting older and forgetful. ---

The cosmetic change is trivial, but not all bad. At least now I can see both daily adventures and the exalted tasks together, whereas previously they were completely separate. I’m fine with the concept of the buccaneer bounty, it’s not creative but I understand that they need to make money. What I am baffled by is the terrible pricing for the item(s) sold. If you’re trying to encourage impulse spending there are better ways of going about it than overcharging for mediocre products. ---

So we can either buy 10 Bronze Icons for $4.99 (granting 10 x 500 VP = 5000 VP) or 2 Silver Icons for $4.99 (granting 2 x 1500 VP = 3000 VP). Sneaky. I guess Gems of War should be relabeled as education game, it teaches people that heavily time gated offers that try to instill a sense of urgency almost always attempt to scam you out of your money. ---

I thought the point of delaying the updat was for more staff to be about. I see ONE CX reply here… this update needs to reveal more features in the coming weeks aside from the already promoted seasonal stuff. ---

An update of about 90mb for a graphic restyling of the daily tasks and add paid events (for a change) that appear when you don’t know, For the game’s birthday, so we have to pay for the party gift? And we also have to bring the cake with candles directly to your headquarters? Andì a gnai và. ---

There was also supposed to be a graphic update (for the PVP Mythic & Legendary… and probably other future troops) and the required data for the new Weekly stuff, starting Nov 4 (to be used for other holidays also). > [@Fourdottwoone](#): > > Sneaky. I guess Gems of War should be relabeled as education game, it teaches people that heavily time gated offers that try to instill a sense of urgency almost always attempt to scam you out of your money. Yes, it is quite unfortunate. I’m really not one to jump on the “NOW! GET IT NOW!” offers, but I was willing to see if these were worth it. They are not, considering I’ve been playing for so long. What I need are medals and deeds, and only one of those are grindable right now. ---

Confirming that information about the fix is false. Before enemy summon in today’s wildfolk blood frenzy ![before](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/c/f/cff3d54a259eee018d0fbfb33cdfd483f50e4782.jpeg) After enemy summon in today’s wildfolk blood frenzy ![after](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/3/5/3502aae78a860f4f671bfd6aa1fce22618f239dc.jpeg) It painfully plain to see that all enemies have increased their stats. But I’m willing to bet that everything was working top notch, as is always the case, when their in-house quality control team was testing the fix. ---

Unfortunately, although Android notifications are back, they are now broken in a different way, as clicking on them no longer gets rid of them. You have to manually clear them out, otherwise they just accumulate. In case you all wanted another reason to hate this update. ---

You have to manually clear them out, otherwise they just accumulate. At least they are working for you… I restarted my phone twice, turned notifications off and on both in-game and in the Android settings, and they still don’t show up at all… ---

I would like to be able to continue playing the daily “search of keys” etc. After each play, I’m taken back to the top of “Daily Plunder”. ---

> [@Abebe](#): > > After each play, I’m taken back to the top of “Daily Plunder”. That’s probably because the handling for those random Daily Plunder cash offers is integrated into visiting the top screen. If they didn’t bump you back there after every battle, you’d miss out on the chance of getting fantastic purchase opportunities. ---

So far this update seems like a complete waste of time. Pharaoh Kafu bug - not fixed Additional enemy stats on summons - not fixed PvP score unfairness - not fixed Adventure Board - downgrade as multiple more clicks to play Buccaneers Bounty - DoA due to nonsense prices I am sure there may be more but need to hold judgement on weeklies. @Kafka , @Bramble you need to look into and provide an update on at least the first 3 which you said were fixed and the proof in this thread it’s not.
